The mistress is reborn, no one who bullies me can escape

Ever since Xue Laosan was arrested, Xue Jinhua's life has become much more peaceful.

But she knew very well that the Xue family would never sit idly by.

Once Third Brother Xue comes out, her true identity will probably no longer be concealed.

Therefore, she had to find a way to kill him before he came out.

.........

Time flies. Half a month has passed. The weather is getting hotter and hotter, but there is still no sign of rain.

That day, everyone in the Wen family sat around the dining table and had dinner together.

Wen Jinyu looked at the porridge in her bowl, pouted her lips, and complained, "Daddy, what's going on? I've been drinking porridge for several days in a row. If this continues, my body will collapse."

Xue Jinhua frowned slightly. She found that the food in her room had not changed at all, so she didn't feel anything special.

Could it be that all this is due to the drought?

Hearing Wen Jinyu's complaints, Father Wen glared at her and scolded her, "You little kid, what do you know? There is drought and water shortage everywhere now. The crops in the fields have withered and died long ago. There will definitely be famine this year. We are lucky to have something to eat, and you are still picky!"

"But Daddy... Even if our family wants to drink porridge, then we should all drink it together. Why should we all drink porridge while my elder sister can eat white rice?" Wen Jinyu looked at her father with a face full of grievance, feeling very unconvinced.

However, Master Wen sighed helplessly and said, "Your elder sister got the rice sent by the Qian family. They specifically told me not to let your elder sister go hungry."

Hearing this, Wen Jinyu widened her eyes, her face full of disbelief.

Xue Jinhua was also surprised at this time. She didn't expect that the Qian family would actually send rice. This made her feel a little embarrassed and unexpected.

Wen Jinyu's eyes were filled with anger, as if they were about to spit out fire.

Faced with this situation, Xue Jinhua quickly said: "Well, my appetite is not very good, and I can't finish all this rice. If you want to eat, I'll give you this bowl of rice?" As she said that, she handed the bowl in her hand to Wen Jinyu.

But who would have thought that Wen Jinyu would snort coldly and turn away with disdain: "Hmph, stop pretending here, who wants to eat your leftovers?"

Xue Jinhua was stunned, not knowing what to do for a moment. Did this child think that he had eaten the leftovers? Or did he treat her like a beggar?

"Jinyu, why are you so rude?" Master Wen couldn't help but scold her when he saw her. "Your sister has good intentions towards you!"

"She gave me the leftovers, and you actually thought it was out of kindness, Dad? I see that Dad has been biased since Big Sister came back, humph..."

Wen Jinyu felt very aggrieved and angry, and felt that her father was unfair to her.

The more she thought about it, the angrier she became. Finally, she threw away the chopsticks in her hand, stood up and said loudly: "I can't eat this meal anymore. You guys eat it if you want!" After that, she turned and left.

"I've spoiled this child to the point of being lawless." Master Wen looked at his daughter's departing back and shook his head helplessly, but he did not get up to chase her.

On the contrary, a trace of guilt appeared on his face.

Seeing this, Xue Jinhua smiled and comforted him, "Master Wen, if you say that, I'm afraid my sister will misunderstand me even more. Why don't you go and explain it to her?"

"My dear, don't worry. You can't tell her about this for now, otherwise she will probably be even more unhappy. After you get married, everything will be clear. Letting her know this now will only cause unnecessary trouble." Master Wen sighed.

Xue Jinhua thought of Wen Jinyu's temper and thought that she might indeed do something unexpected, so she no longer insisted.

"By the way, Master Wen, what is the situation with the recent drought? Is it very serious?" Xue Jinhua suddenly thought of this question.

I only vaguely heard Zhao Yuxuan mention that the Xue family made great contributions in this disaster, stabilized their position in the court, and made a huge profit.

Now that Xue Laosan has been arrested, the Xue family has no one left in Nanling. They can forget about gaining any benefit from this disaster this time.

"It is indeed quite serious. The granary has also been burned down. Most of the food stored in Nanling is gone. There is already a food shortage in the city."

Master Wen's face was not very good. This disaster obviously affected his future. "Now spring farming cannot be carried out, and the price of grain has been driven up. If it continues like this, I'm afraid there will be big problems."

Xue Jinma's expression was solemn. Xue Laosan had stockpiled a lot of food before, but the food had already been taken away by him.

If His Royal Highness the Crown Prince were to borrow food from far away now, it would probably take time.

If they can catch up, it will be fine. If they can’t, Nanling will face an unprecedented crisis…

"But the prince is in Nanling, and these problems will surely be solved." Master Wen comforted, "By the way, this is the invitation sent by the Qian family. If you are free tomorrow, go over and take a look."

Xue Jinhua nodded. She had originally planned to go and thank Master Qian in person, but he had been following the Crown Prince around all the time, and the two hadn't met for a long time.

"Dad, I want to go too." After a while, Wen Jinyu and Old Madam Wen came back and happened to hear about this.

"Stop talking nonsense, what are you going to do?" Master Wen said sternly.

"Dad, this is an invitation from the Qian family. Doesn't it mean that the people going to the Qian family tomorrow will include not only my eldest sister, but also some prominent women in Nanling?"

Master Wen nodded, "That's right."

"No, I must go. Not only me, but my grandmother will go with me."

Before this, she had been dreaming that if she could get close to Mr. Xue San, she would be able to find someone better than Mr. Qian Er. However, who could have thought that Mr. Xue San was arrested halfway through, causing her to be reduced to her original state.

Looking across the entire Nanling Mountains, there is almost nothing comparable to the Qian family.

So she had to go to the banquet tomorrow.

"Son, I think I should take them both there together." Old Lady Wen spoke up on the side.

"After all, they are still young and don't know the etiquette of a wealthy family. I'll go with them and give them some advice. The young lady is about to get married, so don't make any mistakes at this critical moment."

The corners of Master Wen's mouth twitched a few times, "..."

Who is that young lady?

He came from Kyoto and was personally escorted by Master Qian. How could he be someone who doesn't know the rules?

"mother………"

"Master Wen, what the old lady said is absolutely right. Although I have been engaged to the Qian family, we have not yet gotten married. It is not appropriate to go there directly. Let the old lady go with me."

Since Xue Jinhua said so, Master Wen hesitated for a while and naturally agreed.

However, the Qian family is the most powerful family in Nanling and has extensive connections. They are not someone that a small Wen family can easily afford to offend.

After Xue Jinhua left, Master Wen said worriedly, "Mother, the Qian family is the Queen's family. We will visit them tomorrow. Please be careful in what you say and do, and don't cause any embarrassing incidents!"

"Son, just don't worry. I know what's going on." Mrs. Wen replied nonchalantly.

Mr. Wen was still nervous, but when he thought about having Xue Jinhua accompanying them, he thought they wouldn't make any fool of themselves.

After they all left, Wen Jinyu's face suddenly flushed with excitement, and she said excitedly: "Grandma, I will definitely be able to meet His Royal Highness the Crown Prince when I go to the Qian family tomorrow."

She had long heard that the Crown Prince was handsome, elegant, talented, and capable. If she was lucky enough to win the favor of the Crown Prince, then why would she care about the Xue family?

Even if it was the Qian family, I'm afraid she might not take it seriously.

"My Jinyu is so beautiful and charming. If His Royal Highness the Crown Prince sees her, he will be completely enchanted by her." In the eyes of Old Madam Wen, her granddaughter is like the bright moon hanging high in the sky, noble and elegant, beautiful as a fairy, and more than enough to match His Royal Highness the Crown Prince.

"Grandmother is right. I will go get the custom-made dress today. Tomorrow I will dress myself up like a fairy, radiant and dazzling. I will definitely please His Royal Highness the Crown Prince."
